Hookups 9
Determining the best possible connection...
The capabilities of your existing equipment, especially your TV, will determine your connection possibilities.
However, the following guidelines describe which options provide the best picture and sound quality.
૽૽૽૽
૽૽૽
૽૽
ComponentVideo provides the best picture quality. Details are on page 12.
S-Video provides excellent picture quality. Details are on page 11.
CompositeVideo (a yellowVideo jack) provides good picture quality. Details are on page 10.
YourTV may have only an RF-style jack, usually labeled Antenna In or 75 ohm or
RF In.You will need an RF modulator in order to view the DVD Player at yourTV.
See your electronics retailer for details on RF modulator availability and
operations.
૽૽
૽૽૽૽
૽૽૽
Digital audio connections provide the clearest sound, but you must have a digital stereo
receiver. Connect either the DVD Player’s COAXIAL or OPTICAL digital audio out jack to
your Stereo for the best sound quality. Details are on page 14.
If digital connections are not possible, connect the DVD Player’s red and white AUDIO OUT
jacks to the Audio In jacks of your Stereo or TV. Details are on pages 10-13.
Before you begin...
G
Refer to the manuals of your TV, Stereo, or other equipment as necessary. Note the style of jacks and
connectors on the other equipment. Determine how to choose different Audio andVideo In channels
on your other equipment so you can see and hear the DVD Player on the TV, Stereo, etc.
Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to the power outlets only
after you have finished hooking up everything. Never make or change connections with equipment
connected to the power outlet.
G
Remember...
G
Connect the DVD Player directly to the TV. For example, do not connect the DVD Player to aVCR,
then connect theVCR to a TV.This type of connection may distort the picture and sound.Also, your
VCR might have the copy protection system, which could distort the DVD image or prevent playback
of some Discs.
G
Set the TV to the correctVideo In channel. Such channels may be called AUX or AUXILIARY IN,
AUDIO/VIDEO or A/V IN, EXT1 or EXT2 or External In, etc.These channels are often near channel
00. See your TV manual for details. Or, change TV channels until you see the DVD screen saver on the
TV.
G
G
G
Set the Stereo to the correct channel or “source” mode.
Do not connect the DVD Player’s AUDIO OUT jacks to the PHONO IN jack of your Stereo.
You only need one audio connection and one video connection between the DVD Player and your TV
and/or Stereo. So, you might not use all the jacks on the DVD Player.
Once you determine the best option, find your choice on pages 10-14. Follow the
steps for the hookup you choose.

44 Glossary
Analog: Sound that has not been turned into numbers.Analog sound varies, while digital sound has specific
numerical values.Analog sound is available when you use the red and white audio jacks on your equipment.
These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right.
AUDIO OUT Jacks: Jacks on the rear of the DVD Player that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo
Receiver, etc.).
CD: Compact Disc.
Chapter: A part of a Title.
COAXIAL jack: Sends digital audio to a Stereo Receiver, allowing you to adjust the volume at the Receiver.
The Receiver must have a Coaxial In jack.This connection provides the 5.1 channel surround sound as heard
in movie theaters.
ComponentVideoY CB CR Jacks: The Out jacks on the rear of the DVD Player that send high-quality
video to a TV that has ComponentVideo In jacks.
Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital sound is available when you use the
COAXIAL or OPTICAL jacks on the Player.These jacks send audio through multiple channels, instead of just
two channels as analog does.
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound as used in movie theaters.
DVD: DigitalVideo Disc.
Letterbox: Widescreen format; a TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video in full-width, with black
bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen.This format is similar to seeing a movie in a theater. If the Disc
does not include a letterbox format, selecting 4:3 letterbox may have no effect. (For example, some DVDs are
two-sided, with one side playing in widescreen format and the other side playing in a normal format.)
OPTICAL Jack: Converts electrical signals into optical signals before sending the audio to the Stereo
Receiver. Optical audio is not prone to external electrical influences and has less noise, reducing adverse
effects on external equipment. (Keep the protective cap on the jack when the jack is not in use.)
Pan & Scan: A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video with full-height picture with one or both
sides of the picture trimmed to fit on your TV screen. Some movie companies refer to this as “reformatting
the picture to fit your TV screen.”
PBC: Playback Control.A special feature on someVideo CDs/SuperVideo CDs that enables interactive use.
PCM: Pulse Code Modulation. A digital audio encoding system.
RGB: Red-Green-Blue.A top-quality video connection where red, green, and blue components of the picture
are carried through separate wires.This also is referred to as the component video connection.
S-Video: Produces a clearer picture by sending separate signals for the luminance and the color.
Title: A unit of recording on a DVD.
TV system: There are various systems for transmitting television signals, for example PAL, SECAM, and
NTSC. NTSC is the most common color system in the United States of America.
VCD: Video Compact Disc.
VIDEO OUT Jack: Jack on the rear of the DVD Player that sends video (picture) to a TV.
Widescreen: A TV aspect ratio setting (16:9). Displays the video appropriately when you connect the DVD
Player to a widescreen TV.
